1
00:00:01,159 --> 00:00:03,909
(dramatic music)

2
00:00:05,196 --> 00:00:07,946
(fire crackling)

3
00:00:09,810 --> 00:00:11,873
They were going to kill Arthur.

4
00:00:16,350 --> 00:00:17,313
Can you imagine?

5
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:20,640
They would've killed him too,

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,053
but I put a stop to it.

7
00:00:23,730 --> 00:00:27,183
The arrogance, the stupidity.

8
00:00:29,250 --> 00:00:31,863
Not that Uther ever was one for a scholar's coat.

9
00:00:33,810 --> 00:00:38,016
I heard about their sordid plan in the way that I have,

10
00:00:38,016 --> 00:00:39,600
(voices whispering)

11
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,600
whispers in the wind, faces in the embers of the fire,

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,813
and I made it my affair to save him.

13
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:52,550
The high king would do his worst,

14
00:00:52,550 --> 00:00:55,200
(thunder crashing)

15
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:56,943
but I would have my way.

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,700
My way,

17
00:01:01,679 --> 00:01:02,512
was it?

18
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:04,893
Was it ever my way?

19
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:08,670
But I'm getting ahead of myself.

20
00:01:08,670 --> 00:01:09,843
I always am.

21
00:01:11,670 --> 00:01:13,563
This is to be Arthur's story,

22
00:01:16,050 --> 00:01:18,333
but there's more to Arthur than his birth.

23
00:01:19,380 --> 00:01:23,223
To understand him, you have to understand the land.

24
00:01:24,420 --> 00:01:28,773
This land, this island of the mighty.

25
00:01:30,990 --> 00:01:32,683
And you have to understand me,

26
00:01:34,230 --> 00:01:36,276
for I am the man who made him.

27
00:01:36,276 --> 00:01:41,276
(shouting)
(dramatic music)

28
00:01:43,675 --> 00:01:46,258
(wind howling)

29
00:01:47,171 --> 00:01:49,754
(gentle music)

30
00:01:59,075 --> 00:02:02,492
(gentle music continues)

31
00:02:04,561 --> 00:02:07,394
(water murmuring)

32
00:02:16,318 --> 00:02:19,735
(gentle music continues)

33
00:02:29,694 --> 00:02:33,111
(gentle music continues)

34
00:02:42,131 --> 00:02:45,548
(gentle music continues)

35
00:02:54,671 --> 00:02:58,088
(gentle music continues)

36
00:03:07,595 --> 00:03:10,063
(gentle music continues)

37
00:03:10,063 --> 00:03:14,700
Every year of my kingship, it has been my custom

38
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:17,490
to give the first take of my salmon weir

39
00:03:17,490 --> 00:03:20,940
to one of your number as a sign of my respect.

40
00:03:20,940 --> 00:03:22,293
Respect for what?

41
00:03:24,330 --> 00:03:28,106
Everyone knows that your boy is cursed.

42
00:03:28,106 --> 00:03:30,960
(dramatic music)

43
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,960
So you say, but the weir is mine,

44
00:03:35,970 --> 00:03:37,863
and the salmon mine to give.

45
00:03:40,532 --> 00:03:42,363
Elphin is my only son.

46
00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:47,130
A man must do for his true sons what he can

47
00:03:47,130 --> 00:03:48,963
to advance their fortunes.

48
00:03:50,615 --> 00:03:53,198
(gentle music)

49
00:03:58,710 --> 00:04:03,213
Bring a bounty, boy, and show them the curse is broken.

50
00:04:05,736 --> 00:04:08,403
(water rushing)

51
00:04:10,050 --> 00:04:12,209
And what if the nets are empty?

52
00:04:12,209 --> 00:04:14,876
(pensive music)

53
00:04:24,060 --> 00:04:26,560
You might have warned me about the snow upriver.

54
00:04:27,672 --> 00:04:30,072
You might have warned me of your foolish plan.

55
00:04:34,657 --> 00:04:37,824
(uneasy tense music)

56
00:04:47,393 --> 00:04:51,310
(uneasy tense music continues)

57
00:04:56,214 --> 00:04:58,881
(water rushing)

58
00:05:03,797 --> 00:05:06,630
(Elphin grunting)

59
00:05:10,062 --> 00:05:12,812
(water gurgling)

60
00:05:15,237 --> 00:05:19,154
(uneasy tense music continues)

61
00:05:21,926 --> 00:05:24,676
(water gurgling)

62
00:05:29,309 --> 00:05:32,340
(uneasy music)

63
00:05:32,340 --> 00:05:35,067
(people murmuring)

64
00:05:35,067 --> 00:05:37,323
All his ill luck aforetime was nothing.

65
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:41,643
You've let him destroy the virtue of our weir.

66
00:05:41,643 --> 00:05:44,393
(water gurgling)

67
00:05:45,892 --> 00:05:47,392
(water splashing)

68
00:05:47,392 --> 00:05:50,892
(uneasy music continues)

69
00:05:53,419 --> 00:05:56,220
(Elphin grunting)

70
00:05:56,220 --> 00:05:57,637
Elphin, enough!

71
00:06:00,897 --> 00:06:03,730
(Elphin grunting)

72
00:06:07,403 --> 00:06:10,903
(uneasy music continues)

73
00:06:15,362 --> 00:06:18,270
(Elphin grunting)

74
00:06:18,270 --> 00:06:19,953
He, he has something.

75
00:06:22,473 --> 00:06:25,223
(Elphin panting)

76
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,963
It's nothing, a drowned carcass.

77
00:06:32,803 --> 00:06:36,303
(uneasy music continues)

78
00:06:39,614 --> 00:06:42,364
(Elphin panting)

79
00:06:46,151 --> 00:06:48,984
(Elphin grunting)

80
00:06:55,457 --> 00:06:58,957
(uneasy music continues)

81
00:07:00,690 --> 00:07:03,440
(fire crackling)

82
00:07:10,907 --> 00:07:13,657
(Elphin panting)

83
00:07:18,565 --> 00:07:21,482
(Gwyddno grunting)

84
00:07:26,010 --> 00:07:28,113
Why so eager to share this bad luck?

85
00:07:31,759 --> 00:07:35,092
(uneasy ominous music)

86
00:07:44,376 --> 00:07:48,459
(uneasy ominous music continues)

87
00:07:57,382 --> 00:08:01,465
(uneasy ominous music continues)

88
00:08:03,629 --> 00:08:06,379
(knife clinking)

89
00:08:08,624 --> 00:08:12,707
(uneasy ominous music continues)

90
00:08:19,823 --> 00:08:22,906
(tense uneasy music)

91
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,820
The scrawny thing's dead.

92
00:08:26,820 --> 00:08:29,910
Who'd be for throwing a babe like that in the river?

93
00:08:29,910 --> 00:08:31,410
The child is bewitched.

94
00:08:31,410 --> 00:08:33,110
Throw him back in and be done with it.

95
00:08:33,110 --> 00:08:33,943
(blade ringing)

96
00:08:33,943 --> 00:08:35,043
Don't touch him.

97
00:08:37,860 --> 00:08:40,053
The babe could be cursed, son.

98
00:08:42,330 --> 00:08:43,380
I'm already cursed.

99
00:08:46,419 --> 00:08:49,086
(uneasy music)

100
00:08:58,444 --> 00:09:01,694
(gentle pensive music)

101
00:09:11,350 --> 00:09:15,433

(baby crying)

104
00:09:27,062 --> 00:09:28,479
By the goddess.

105
00:09:29,699 --> 00:09:32,199
(baby crying)

106
00:09:35,580 --> 00:09:36,413
Behold.

107
00:09:38,276 --> 00:09:40,503
Taliesin of the radiant brow.

108
00:09:46,821 --> 00:09:49,321
(baby crying)

109
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,600
Never in Gwyddno's weir

110
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,063
was there such good fortune as today.

111
00:10:04,860 --> 00:10:07,239
Small you are, Taliesin,

112
00:10:07,239 --> 00:10:11,720
and weak, yet there is virtue in your tongue.

113
00:10:14,263 --> 00:10:17,010
A bard, the boy will be.

114
00:10:17,010 --> 00:10:18,810
A maker with words like no other

115
00:10:18,810 --> 00:10:20,410
from the beginning of the world,

116
00:10:22,620 --> 00:10:27,123
and in his voice will be born a kingdom of summer.

117
00:10:31,101 --> 00:10:34,434
(gentle dramatic music)

118
00:10:36,467 --> 00:10:39,050
(baby whining)

119
00:10:40,950 --> 00:10:45,950
Henceforth, let no one say Elphin Ap Gwyddno is unlucky.

120
00:10:47,606 --> 00:10:50,356
(dramatic music)

121

(Charis speaking Atlantean)

190
00:17:31,839 --> 00:17:34,579
(ground rumbling)

191
00:17:34,579 --> 00:17:37,347
(crowd gasping)

192
00:17:37,347 --> 00:17:41,430
(bull speaking Atlantean)

193
00:17:44,301 --> 00:17:47,051
(rain pattering)

194
00:17:49,226 --> 00:17:51,809
(somber music)

195
00:17:57,111 --> 00:18:00,028
(thunder rumbling)

196
00:18:09,170 --> 00:18:12,257
You there, fetch me your lord.

197
00:18:12,257 --> 00:18:13,381
And be quick with you.

198
00:18:13,381 --> 00:18:15,214
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

199
00:18:17,333 --> 00:18:18,395
(knuckles rapping)

200
00:18:18,395 --> 00:18:20,228
Peace, Hagan, peace.

201
00:18:25,027 --> 00:18:27,090
What have you seen?

202
00:18:27,090 --> 00:18:27,940
They're coming.

203
00:18:36,902 --> 00:18:38,310
Picti?

204
00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:40,440
From today, we will no longer speak

205
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,223
of Irish, Pict, or Saecsen, but of Barbarian.

206
00:18:46,020 --> 00:18:46,853
Unified?

207
00:18:47,790 --> 00:18:48,623
Mmm.

208
00:18:52,860 --> 00:18:54,610
I had hoped for a few more years.

209
00:18:57,750 --> 00:19:01,353
One season more or less, what difference?

210
00:19:02,490 --> 00:19:04,143
Take the day as it comes, o'King.

211
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,293
Do you see victory for us?

212
00:19:08,220 --> 00:19:09,470
Better to ask your son.

213
00:19:10,890 --> 00:19:13,620
He sees these things much clearer than I.

214
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:16,263
I have not seen Taliesin in three days.

215
00:19:19,602 --> 00:19:21,877
(somber music)

216
00:19:21,877 --> 00:19:24,870
Where is he when I need him?

217
00:19:24,870 --> 00:19:26,643
He'll be where he's needed most.

218
00:19:27,861 --> 00:19:30,611
(dramatic music)

219
00:19:34,620 --> 00:19:37,623
Earth Mother, behold your son.

220
00:19:38,730 --> 00:19:42,243
Sky Mother, recognize your devoted servant.

221
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:48,920
Father of Wisdom, speak to me that I may hear your voice.

222
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,853
Great Goddess, Queen of Life,

223
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,960
reveal to me the vision of your sight.

224
00:19:59,432 --> 00:20:02,073
Speak-
A beautiful prayer.

225
00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:07,740
The gods of this place must be pleased.

226
00:20:07,740 --> 00:20:10,500
It is unwise to sneak up on a man while he prays.

227
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:14,013
It is unwise to pray while a man sneaks up on you.

228
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,240
You are old to have climbed this hill alone.

229
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,993
You are young to have climbed it at all.

230
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,002
You think me young to seek the gods?

231
00:20:25,002 --> 00:20:30,002
(chuckling) Few enough seek the gods, young or old.

232
00:20:33,060 --> 00:20:34,380
The chair on which you sit

233
00:20:34,380 --> 00:20:36,030
belongs to the head of our order,

234
00:20:36,930 --> 00:20:39,450
the Chief Druid of the Island of the Mighty.

235
00:20:39,450 --> 00:20:42,873
And are you a druid then, Taliesin Ap Elphin?

236
00:20:45,900 --> 00:20:46,893
You know me.

237
00:20:46,893 --> 00:20:51,243
(chuckling) All men know of the great Taliesin.

238
00:20:52,290 --> 00:20:55,953
They say you are the most powerful of your people.

239
00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,853
I am as you see me.

240
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:03,540
Who are you?

241
00:21:03,540 --> 00:21:05,163
Curious, isn't it?

242
00:21:06,540 --> 00:21:09,681
Why did your order allow one

243
00:21:09,681 --> 00:21:13,539
of their sacred stones to fall?

244
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,660
Must have fallen long ago.

245
00:21:18,660 --> 00:21:23,553
I wonder, will you be the man to raise it?

246
00:21:24,951 --> 00:21:27,618
(pensive music)

247
00:21:29,731 --> 00:21:33,436
(Taliesin grunting)

248
00:21:33,436 --> 00:21:36,398
(stone crumbling)

249
00:21:36,398 --> 00:21:39,398
(Taliesin grunting)

250
00:21:42,186 --> 00:21:45,683
(Taliesin panting)

251
00:21:45,683 --> 00:21:48,350
(hand thudding)

252
00:21:52,210 --> 00:21:53,782
(Taliesin grunting)

253
00:21:53,782 --> 00:21:56,865
(Taliesin screaming)

254
00:21:59,330 --> 00:22:02,330
(Taliesin grunting)

255
00:22:06,026 --> 00:22:07,704
(Taliesin panting)

256
00:22:07,704 --> 00:22:09,371
I see why it fell.

257
00:22:12,184 --> 00:22:15,150
(dramatic music)

258
00:22:15,150 --> 00:22:16,300
Forgive me, stranger.

259
00:22:17,610 --> 00:22:19,450
Do the dead forgive?

260
00:22:23,008 --> 00:22:24,690
It is very old.

261
00:22:24,690 --> 00:22:26,607
What of the markings?

262
00:22:28,430 --> 00:22:31,640
Cernunnos, The Horned Lord!

263
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,767
One of your gods?

264
00:22:33,767 --> 00:22:37,376
No, much older.

265
00:22:37,376 --> 00:22:40,789
(dramatic ominous music)

266
00:22:40,789 --> 00:22:42,901
(Taliesin gasping)

267
00:22:42,901 --> 00:22:43,901
Ancient one.

268
00:22:49,058 --> 00:22:53,758
No, no. (panting)

269
00:22:56,899 --> 00:22:57,732
No.

270
00:22:59,139 --> 00:23:02,056
(Taliesin panting)

271
00:23:04,074 --> 00:23:06,959
(man screaming)

272
00:23:06,959 --> 00:23:09,012
(flesh squelching)

273
00:23:09,012 --> 00:23:11,297
(ominous music)

274
00:23:11,297 --> 00:23:14,484
(Taliesin panting)

275
00:23:14,484 --> 00:23:17,401
(flesh squelching)

276
00:23:18,426 --> 00:23:21,343
(Taliesin panting)

277
00:23:22,995 --> 00:23:27,995
(Cernunnos speaking ancient Celtic)

278
00:23:28,245 --> 00:23:29,472
(water splashing)
(Taliesin gasping)

279
00:23:29,472 --> 00:23:31,123
Put it back!

280
00:23:31,123 --> 00:23:32,383
Put the stone back!

281
00:23:32,383 --> 00:23:36,090
No doubt I think this Cernunnos

282
00:23:36,090 --> 00:23:39,363
would prefer you left his stone upright.

283
00:23:41,370 --> 00:23:42,660
He would have me revive the old ways.

284
00:23:42,660 --> 00:23:46,503
Ah, and what do you think?

285
00:23:48,131 --> 00:23:50,790
Look upon me then, Shining Brow.

286
00:23:57,255 --> 00:23:58,893
(Taliesin panting)

287
00:23:58,893 --> 00:24:02,610
Have you nothing to say to me, Great Bard?

288
00:24:02,610 --> 00:24:06,492
No song to sing or wisdom to declare?

289
00:24:06,492 --> 00:24:07,350
(Taliesin screaming)

290
00:24:07,350 --> 00:24:09,390
On the day of your liberation,

291
00:24:09,390 --> 00:24:11,250
your tongue will be loosed

292
00:24:11,250 --> 00:24:14,252
and the words I give you will come.

293
00:24:14,252 --> 00:24:16,324
You will be my bard,

294
00:24:16,324 --> 00:24:20,190
proclaiming my reign in the world of men.

295
00:24:20,190 --> 00:24:22,409
Men will hear your voice

296
00:24:22,409 --> 00:24:25,409
and will know who it is that speaks.

297
00:24:26,394 --> 00:24:31,394
Taliesin.
Father. (panting)

298
00:24:35,043 --> 00:24:39,093
Who am I, father, that the gods should war for my soul?

299
00:24:40,110 --> 00:24:41,493
You are my son, boy,

300
00:24:42,570 --> 00:24:45,930
and the greatest bard in the history of your people.

301
00:24:45,930 --> 00:24:46,763
Nothing more?

302
00:24:47,670 --> 00:24:48,903
Is that not enough?

303
00:24:52,230 --> 00:24:53,063
Come now.

304
00:24:54,270 --> 00:24:56,283
Our enemies gather against us.

305
00:24:57,120 --> 00:24:57,997
I need you.

306
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:06,659
(knife slashing)
(stone thudding)

307
00:25:06,659 --> 00:25:09,242
(somber music)

308
00:25:16,375 --> 00:25:21,375
(warriors shouting)
(dramatic music)

309
00:25:23,241 --> 00:25:25,135
(swords clanking)

310
00:25:25,135 --> 00:25:28,135
(warriors grunting)

311
00:25:29,582 --> 00:25:32,756
(warrior screaming)

312
00:25:32,756 --> 00:25:36,006
(gentle pensive music)

313
00:25:38,592 --> 00:25:43,592
(ominous music)
(hooves clopping)

314
00:25:50,580 --> 00:25:51,843
Hail Maximus.

315
00:25:52,813 --> 00:25:54,060
I don't remember a Roman legion

316
00:25:54,060 --> 00:25:56,793
requiring the aid of a Celtic ala to avoid defeat.

317
00:25:58,410 --> 00:25:59,973
You have a short memory.

318
00:26:07,991 --> 00:26:10,408
I see you've met the enemy.

319
00:26:11,820 --> 00:26:13,350
Thank you for coming, Elphin,

320
00:26:13,350 --> 00:26:15,483
but I can't allow you to stay.

321
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,950
The barbarian have overrun Luguvallium.

322
00:26:21,452 --> 00:26:22,527
By the goddess.

323
00:26:22,527 --> 00:26:23,763
The wall is fallen.

324
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,970
Go home, friend.

325
00:26:26,970 --> 00:26:27,873
Defend your own.

326
00:26:31,770 --> 00:26:34,260
Both our people will stand a far better chance

327
00:26:34,260 --> 00:26:36,783
if we stand together.

328
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,853
Besides we have my son to uphold us.

329
00:26:45,889 --> 00:26:47,490
Hail, Taliesin!

330
00:26:47,490 --> 00:26:49,350
I confess I should not like to miss the chance

331
00:26:49,350 --> 00:26:51,900
to fight under your blessing once more.

332
00:26:51,900 --> 00:26:53,093
Then you shall have it.

333
00:26:55,715 --> 00:26:57,015
Will you join me, Teacher?

334
00:27:00,963 --> 00:27:04,130
(soft dramatic music)

335
00:27:13,514 --> 00:27:17,514
(soft dramatic music continues)

336
00:27:21,780 --> 00:27:25,143
The Horned God, what did he offer you?

337
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,713
Great power for a great price.

338
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,730
Let us hope your refusal is not the doom of our people.

339
00:27:45,846 --> 00:27:49,050
(soft dramatic music continues)

340
00:27:49,050 --> 00:27:50,900
My acceptance surely would've been.

341
00:27:53,536 --> 00:27:56,869
(uneasy pensive music)

342
00:27:58,565 --> 00:28:02,982
(Taliesin speaking ancient Celtic)

343
00:28:04,900 --> 00:28:08,205
There is no other like him in all the empire.

344
00:28:08,205 --> 00:28:12,205
There is none other like him in all the world.

345
00:28:13,098 --> 00:28:15,931
(thunder booming)

346
00:28:16,851 --> 00:28:19,801
(Taliesin whispering ancient Celtic)

347
00:28:19,801 --> 00:28:24,801
(people shouting)
(swords clanking)

348
00:28:29,069 --> 00:28:33,152
(uneasy pensive music continues)

349
00:28:41,809 --> 00:28:43,720
(uneasy pensive music continues)

350
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,770
(dramatic music)

351
00:28:46,770 --> 00:28:48,828
(thunder booming)

352
00:28:48,828 --> 00:28:50,846
(horse neighing)

353
00:28:50,846 --> 00:28:52,988
(warriors shouting)

354
00:28:52,988 --> 00:28:56,571
(dramatic music continues)

355
00:28:57,484 --> 00:29:00,317
(thunder booming)

356
00:29:02,467 --> 00:29:06,050
(dramatic music continues)

357
00:29:10,276 --> 00:29:15,276
(crickets chirping)
(birds singing)

358
00:29:16,951 --> 00:29:18,747
Who could it be?

359
00:29:18,747 --> 00:29:22,230
Saecsen? Irish?

360
00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:24,900
More likely a traveler stopping for rest and shade.

361
00:29:24,900 --> 00:29:27,360
I never thought we would find it occupied.

362
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,820
One horse is hardly an occupation, Collen.

363
00:29:29,820 --> 00:29:32,310
Still, we should wait.

364
00:29:32,310 --> 00:29:33,410
Maybe they'll move on.

365
00:29:36,671 --> 00:29:38,070
What are you doing?

366
00:29:38,070 --> 00:29:40,433
We didn't come all this way to cower before the prize.

367
00:29:47,825 --> 00:29:50,575
(birds chirping)

368
00:29:57,803 --> 00:29:59,309
(uneasy music)

369
00:29:59,309 --> 00:30:02,615
(both gasping)

370
00:30:02,615 --> 00:30:04,470
(gentle music)

371
00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:05,520
Ave Maria.

372
00:30:09,990 --> 00:30:10,833
Goodness.

373
00:30:12,660 --> 00:30:14,640
Holy Mary, Mother of the Christ.

374
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:15,753
Have mercy on us.

375
00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:19,830
What manner of men are you?

376
00:30:19,830 --> 00:30:22,053
Unworthy men, Lady.

377
00:30:23,820 --> 00:30:24,653
I see.

378
00:30:26,490 --> 00:30:27,780
Why have you come here?

379
00:30:27,780 --> 00:30:29,765
Seeking this holy place.

380
00:30:29,765 --> 00:30:34,653
And who is this Holy Mary of whom you speak?

381
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:42,573
Why, the Mother of the Most High,

382
00:30:43,451 --> 00:30:46,293
Jesu the Christ, Savior of Mankind.

383
00:30:48,270 --> 00:30:49,720
You are not the Blessed Lady?

384
00:30:51,995 --> 00:30:54,145
There are those who would call me Savior,

385
00:30:55,110 --> 00:30:57,681
but I've never heard of this goddess Mary.

386
00:30:57,681 --> 00:30:59,280
Goddess?

387
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:00,753
Forgive us, Lady.

388
00:31:02,310 --> 00:31:04,653
We worship no God but the True God,

389
00:31:05,490 --> 00:31:08,193
the God who was once worshiped in this very place.

390
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,993
The True God worshiped here?

391
00:31:15,090 --> 00:31:16,950
That seems unlikely.

392
00:31:16,950 --> 00:31:18,813
Again, I beg your forgiveness.

393
00:31:19,650 --> 00:31:21,330
We have traveled all the way from Gaul

394
00:31:21,330 --> 00:31:23,910
to find and restore this place

395
00:31:23,910 --> 00:31:25,980
in order that the truth of our God

396
00:31:25,980 --> 00:31:28,710
might be proclaimed once more hereabouts.

397
00:31:28,710 --> 00:31:30,363
You speak often of truth.

398
00:31:31,650 --> 00:31:34,260
Is this God of yours so interested in truth?

399
00:31:34,260 --> 00:31:39,063
In truth, yes, but also in love.

400
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:42,540
I see.

401
00:31:42,540 --> 00:31:43,623
A strange God then,

402
00:31:44,550 --> 00:31:46,260
and often disappointed, I should think.

403
00:31:46,260 --> 00:31:47,343
This is blasphemy.

404
00:31:48,180 --> 00:31:51,723
My companion studied under Brother Martin in Tours.

405
00:31:52,980 --> 00:31:56,670
He is zealous, but perhaps less open-minded

406
00:31:56,670 --> 00:31:58,593
than the situation calls for.

407
00:32:00,930 --> 00:32:01,833
He's honest.

408
00:32:03,900 --> 00:32:05,100
If you wish to restore this place,

409
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:07,400
you will need the permission of King Avallach.

410
00:32:09,060 --> 00:32:09,893
Faery!

411
00:32:13,260 --> 00:32:16,060
You are of the Faer Folk, who dwell in the Glass Isle?

412
00:32:17,820 --> 00:32:20,940
The people here tell many strange tales about you.

413
00:32:20,940 --> 00:32:23,240
Have you heard we change our shapes at will?

414
00:32:24,690 --> 00:32:27,240
Have you heard we never sleep or rest

415
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,400
and we have but to bid and the winds bring us news

416
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:30,963
from any corner of our realm?

417
00:32:32,470 --> 00:32:35,670
And more.

418
00:32:35,670 --> 00:32:37,233
What do you believe, Priest?

419
00:32:40,020 --> 00:32:42,653
We will believe whatever the Holy God reveals to us.

420
00:32:46,980 --> 00:32:50,883
I trusted a God once, long ago.

421
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:54,593
What happened?

422
00:32:58,732 --> 00:33:01,170
(dramatic music)

423
00:33:01,170 --> 00:33:02,003
I killed him.

424
00:33:05,492 --> 00:33:09,075
(dramatic music continues)

425
00:33:12,622 --> 00:33:16,289
(dramatic music continues)

426
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,197
I've never seen anything like it.

427
00:33:25,197 --> 00:33:29,043
Not in Rome or Athens or Constantinople itself.

428
00:33:30,420 --> 00:33:32,343
Truly, these are the Faery!

429
00:33:34,020 --> 00:33:37,803
Hey, brother, they're mortals like as we.

430
00:33:39,870 --> 00:33:41,013
Mortals, perhaps.

431
00:33:42,913 --> 00:33:44,413
But never like us.

432
00:33:46,182 --> 00:33:49,849
(dramatic music continues)

433
00:33:56,884 --> 00:34:00,292
(dramatic music continues)

434
00:34:00,292 --> 00:34:03,042
(doors thudding)

435
00:34:06,504 --> 00:34:09,337
(hooves clopping)

436
00:34:13,364 --> 00:34:17,697
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

437
00:34:23,347 --> 00:34:27,828
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

438
00:34:27,828 --> 00:34:29,645
(horse neighing)

439
00:34:29,645 --> 00:34:32,322
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

440
00:34:32,322 --> 00:34:35,790
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

441
00:34:35,790 --> 00:34:37,860
What strange men are you?

442
00:34:37,860 --> 00:34:39,183
Priests, my lady.

443
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,110
Are they with the others?

444
00:34:46,380 --> 00:34:49,050
Your father has given audience to a large group

445
00:34:49,050 --> 00:34:50,730
of strangely dressed Britons.

446
00:34:50,730 --> 00:34:52,470
Our father, Morgian.

447
00:34:52,470 --> 00:34:54,563
He asks that you join him on your return.

448
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,123
My presence was not requested.

449
00:35:01,435 --> 00:35:03,717
(uneasy music)

450
00:35:03,717 --> 00:35:06,467
(horse grunting)

451
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,453
(doors thudding)

452
00:35:12,453 --> 00:35:13,740
Do you think these painted men

453
00:35:13,740 --> 00:35:15,543
will strike this far south?

454
00:35:19,466 --> 00:35:20,937
In time.

455
00:35:20,937 --> 00:35:24,750
Although, in Dyfed, we heard the emperor

456
00:35:24,750 --> 00:35:27,510
was withdrawing two legions from Gaul

457
00:35:27,510 --> 00:35:29,403
and sending troops back to the wall.

458
00:35:30,780 --> 00:35:31,923
Here she is.

459
00:35:33,030 --> 00:35:37,140
King Elphin Ap Gwyddno, I present to you my daughter,

460
00:35:37,140 --> 00:35:41,523
the Princess Charis, Savior of our People.

461
00:35:42,894 --> 00:35:45,894
(soft uneasy music)

462
00:35:53,730 --> 00:35:54,933
Princess Charis.

463
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:57,570
Your father was just telling us

464
00:35:57,570 --> 00:36:00,033
how you delivered your people from calamity.

465
00:36:02,140 --> 00:36:03,180
It is the way of fathers

466
00:36:03,180 --> 00:36:05,780
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

467
00:36:07,770 --> 00:36:08,820
Never say it.

468
00:36:08,820 --> 00:36:12,930
Not an Atlantean draws breath who doesn't owe their life

469
00:36:12,930 --> 00:36:13,983
to my daughter.

470
00:36:16,290 --> 00:36:19,383
My people know something of loss as well.

471
00:36:22,470 --> 00:36:24,573
We too are strangers in these lands.

472
00:36:25,530 --> 00:36:29,640
Travelers are always welcome within these walls.

473
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,743
Please stay with us if you can.

474
00:36:32,940 --> 00:36:37,353
Allow me to share the bounty of my table this evening.

475
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:45,543
Your offer is most generous.

476
00:36:48,180 --> 00:36:53,180
Please accept this token as a sign of our gratitude.

477
00:36:54,793 --> 00:36:57,960
(gentle uneasy music)

478
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:08,035
You honor me, Lord Elphin.

479
00:37:08,035 --> 00:37:12,035
(gentle uneasy music continues)

480
00:37:21,219 --> 00:37:24,136
(people murmuring)

481
00:37:27,352 --> 00:37:31,254
(Charis speaking Atlantean)

482
00:37:31,254 --> 00:37:35,671
(Avallach speaking Atlantean)

483
00:37:41,487 --> 00:37:42,320
Mmm.

484
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,330
I gather his people have been driven

485
00:37:51,330 --> 00:37:53,730
from their homeland in the North?

486
00:37:53,730 --> 00:37:55,020
Driven?

487
00:37:55,020 --> 00:38:00,020
By war, war which will soon visit us in the South.

488
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,783
If it is as bad as they declare.

489
00:38:04,650 --> 00:38:05,900
You don't believe them?

490
00:38:07,110 --> 00:38:11,793
Desperate men can never be trusted.

491
00:38:16,620 --> 00:38:17,823
Can they be trusted?

492
00:38:19,230 --> 00:38:21,030
Powerful men can never be trusted.

493
00:38:22,380 --> 00:38:23,373
What say you, son?

494
00:38:24,690 --> 00:38:25,523
Taliesin.

495
00:38:27,780 --> 00:38:28,613
Sorry, Father.

496
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,400
I need you in the present,

497
00:38:32,524 --> 00:38:34,274
not lost in the past.

498
00:38:36,513 --> 00:38:38,490
King Avallach has shown kindness

499
00:38:38,490 --> 00:38:40,040
when kindness was not required.

500
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:45,833
And yet?

501
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,047
I sense danger in this place.

502
00:38:50,047 --> 00:38:53,430
(uneasy music)

503
00:38:53,430 --> 00:38:54,480
You must be wary.

504
00:38:57,771 --> 00:39:01,188
(uneasy music continues)

505
00:39:09,470 --> 00:39:11,279
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

506
00:39:11,279 --> 00:39:15,409
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

507
00:39:15,409 --> 00:39:16,822
(Morgian scoffing)

508
00:39:16,822 --> 00:39:21,155
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

509
00:39:23,796 --> 00:39:28,046
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

510
00:39:31,530 --> 00:39:34,947
(uneasy music continues)

511
00:39:42,915 --> 00:39:47,248
(Morgian speaking Atlantean)

512
00:39:52,251 --> 00:39:55,259
(uneasy music continues)

513
00:39:55,259 --> 00:39:59,509
(Annubi speaking Atlantean)

514
00:40:01,398 --> 00:40:04,815
(uneasy music continues)

515
00:40:07,708 --> 00:40:11,016
(doors thudding)

516
00:40:11,016 --> 00:40:14,183
(gentle string music)

517
00:40:15,907 --> 00:40:18,657
(food crunching)

518
00:40:22,221 --> 00:40:24,971
(food crunching)

519
00:40:29,570 --> 00:40:33,570
(gentle string music continues)

520
00:40:40,861 --> 00:40:45,311
Mmm. (sighing)

521
00:40:46,532 --> 00:40:48,360
Are you unwell, King Avallach?

522
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,643
An old wound, and deep.

523
00:40:51,570 --> 00:40:52,473
Pay me no heed.

524
00:40:53,942 --> 00:40:57,942
(gentle string music continues)

525
00:40:59,543 --> 00:41:00,750
It is fortunate your people were able

526
00:41:00,750 --> 00:41:02,763
to escape the troubles in the North, King Elphin.

527
00:41:02,763 --> 00:41:03,596
Mm.

528
00:41:04,708 --> 00:41:07,293
The luck of Elphin Ap Gwyddno is legendary.

529
00:41:09,270 --> 00:41:10,680
Among our people,

530
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,480
when breaking bread with new friends,

531
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,253
it's customary to have a song.

532
00:41:15,690 --> 00:41:18,390
Alas, our best minstrels lie dead

533
00:41:18,390 --> 00:41:20,520
at the bottom of the great sea.

534
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:21,353
Indeed.

535
00:41:22,260 --> 00:41:25,083
We have all seen our homes lost and kinsmen killed.

536
00:41:26,190 --> 00:41:30,870
And yet, our people escaped not only with our lives,

537
00:41:30,870 --> 00:41:32,519
but with our greatest treasure.

538
00:41:32,519 --> 00:41:33,691
(fist thudding)

539
00:41:33,691 --> 00:41:36,270
Hafgan speaks truth.

540
00:41:36,270 --> 00:41:38,583
The treasure is my son, Taliesin,

541
00:41:39,720 --> 00:41:42,423
a bard of extraordinary talent.

542
00:41:43,980 --> 00:41:45,243
Is this true?

543
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:48,469
Taliesin, Taliesin.

544
00:41:50,970 --> 00:41:52,113
Is this true?

545
00:41:56,010 --> 00:41:56,940
It is the way of fathers

546
00:41:56,940 --> 00:41:59,513
to exaggerate the accomplishments of their children.

547
00:42:00,750 --> 00:42:02,943
False modesty is unbecoming, Taliesin.

548
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,287
King Avallach has shared his bounty with us.

549
00:42:06,287 --> 00:42:08,043
Let us share ours with him.

550
00:42:18,108 --> 00:42:20,409
(chair thudding)

551
00:42:20,409 --> 00:42:23,159
(fists pounding)

552
00:42:32,197 --> 00:42:34,947
(fists pounding)

553
00:42:40,869 --> 00:42:43,619
(fists pounding)

554
00:42:45,169 --> 00:42:47,919
(fire crackling)

555
00:42:55,860 --> 00:42:59,163
Hear, then, if you will, the Lament of Pwyll,

556
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:01,263
Prince of Annwifn.

557
00:43:05,833 --> 00:43:07,470
(gentle string music)

558
00:43:07,470 --> 00:43:09,150
In the days when the dew of creation

559
00:43:09,150 --> 00:43:11,550

560
00:43:11,550 --> 00:43:14,343
Pwyll was lord over the seven catrefs of Dyfed.

00:43:15,690 --> 00:43:19,650
Seven of Gwynedd, and seven of Lloegr as well.

562
00:43:19,650 --> 00:43:22,773
In Caer Narberth, his principal stronghold,

563
00:43:23,670 --> 00:43:26,640
he awakened one morning to look upon the hills,

564
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,143
abounding with game.

565
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:30,930
A thought came to him

566
00:43:31,807 --> 00:43:33,957
and he assembled his men to go out hunting.

567
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,102
And this is the way of it.

568
00:43:39,102 --> 00:43:43,102

Princess Charis?

The Savior of her People is not here, stranger.

(horse neighing)

634
00:50:48,810 --> 00:50:50,010
The foal is in breech?

635
00:50:51,510 --> 00:50:53,260
I'm not strong enough to turn it.

The fourth emanation.

640
00:51:35,537 --> 00:51:38,370
I know the price of the power you display.

641
00:51:38,370 --> 00:51:40,220
I've never spilled blood for power.

642
00:51:42,205 --> 00:51:43,678
Perhaps that's why I failed.

643
00:51:43,678 --> 00:51:44,511
Failed?

644
00:51:52,223 --> 00:51:54,973
(horse neighing)

645
00:52:01,874 --> 00:52:06,707

(horse neighing)

648
00:52:25,215 --> 00:52:26,048
Shh.

649
00:52:32,290 --> 00:52:36,546
(horse grunting and neighing)

650
00:52:36,546 --> 00:52:37,379
Shh.

651

(Taliesin speaking in ancient Celtic)

652
00:52:50,580 --> 00:52:52,163
The foal is turned.

653
00:52:54,662 --> 00:52:55,662
All be well.

654
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:00,160
Thank you.

655
00:53:05,591 --> 00:53:08,674
(dark pensive music)

656
00:53:15,152 --> 00:53:16,800
Forgive me.

657
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,183
I seek the Princess Charis.

658
00:53:21,030 --> 00:53:22,130
Did she come this way?

659
00:53:24,720 --> 00:53:26,906
She took her grey and rode out.

660
00:53:26,906 --> 00:53:29,489
(uneasy music)

661
00:53:30,990 --> 00:53:33,963
She often bathes below the Tor at night,

662
00:53:36,570 --> 00:53:38,463
when there are fewer prying eyes.

663
00:53:40,350 --> 00:53:41,560
Thank you,

664
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:43,873
friend.

665
00:53:46,281 --> 00:53:48,864
(solemn music)

666
00:53:58,106 --> 00:54:01,523

(water splashing)

673

(Charis gasping)

674
00:54:55,740 --> 00:54:59,340
I beg your pardon, princess. I didn't mean to startle you.

675
00:54:59,340 --> 00:55:01,260
Is it customary in the north to spy on a woman

676
00:55:01,260 --> 00:55:02,223
while she bathes?

677
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:05,670
Never, lady.

678
00:55:05,670 --> 00:55:06,870
Then what do you here?

679
00:55:09,510 --> 00:55:10,610
I needed to see you.

680
00:55:15,232 --> 00:55:17,982
Have you not seen enough of me?

681
00:55:20,130 --> 00:55:22,110
It wasn't my intention to intrude into your thoughts.

682
00:55:22,110 --> 00:55:23,883
You intruded into my soul.

683
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,313
I know what the bull-god offered you.

684
00:55:32,116 --> 00:55:34,616
Cernunnos offered me the same.

685
00:55:36,393 --> 00:55:37,226
And?

686
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:40,770
I made the same choice you did.

687
00:55:42,046 --> 00:55:45,213
(gentle somber music)

688
00:55:47,010 --> 00:55:48,033
Then damn us both.

689
00:55:51,090 --> 00:55:51,923
Aye.

690
00:55:55,230 --> 00:55:57,660
I do not find myself in need of company.

691
00:55:57,660 --> 00:55:59,463
Less so the company of a savage.

692
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,483
Well, you think of us as savages, aye?

693
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:09,020
And we think of you as otherworldly.

694
00:56:09,020 --> 00:56:11,603
(gentle music)

695
00:56:12,630 --> 00:56:15,813
Perhaps, we're both just people.

696
00:56:19,396 --> 00:56:21,580
I am not just anything, singer.

697
00:56:25,006 --> 00:56:30,006
(gentle dramatic music)
(water sloshing)

698
00:56:36,696 --> 00:56:39,529
(Morgian sobbing)

699
00:56:41,820 --> 00:56:45,210
How dare you enter my chamber without leave!

700
00:56:45,210 --> 00:56:46,680
You have no right!

701
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,692
It shows me more than it ever showed you!

702
00:56:48,692 --> 00:56:51,450
(slaps) Never from curiosity.

703
00:56:51,450 --> 00:56:53,403
How many times have I told you?

704
00:56:54,316 --> 00:56:57,331
You were ever weak.

705
00:56:57,331 --> 00:57:02,130
And you were ever a fool. Just like your sister.

706
00:57:02,130 --> 00:57:04,440
Oh yes, she had the sight, too.

707
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:08,160
And what did she do with it? Savior of our People?

708
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:11,160
A thousand thousand of our kinsmen swallowed by the sea,

709
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,397
and this savage crag is our

710
00:57:13,397 --> 00:57:17,623
salvation?
(Morgan gasps)

711
00:57:17,623 --> 00:57:21,900
True power is killing what you love, little girl,

712
00:57:21,900 --> 00:57:23,493
not letting it kill you.

713
00:57:24,870 --> 00:57:29,633
I do not love the bard. It's only his power I desire.

714
00:57:33,540 --> 00:57:35,133
As I desired yours.

715
00:57:38,610 --> 00:57:43,610
And now you have none left to give.

716
00:57:44,050 --> 00:57:46,633
(somber music)

717
00:57:55,333 --> 00:57:58,750
(somber music continues)

718
00:58:03,443 --> 00:58:06,193
(birds chirping)

719
00:58:08,220 --> 00:58:09,153
Princess Charis.

720
00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,130
Prince Taliesin.

721
00:58:14,130 --> 00:58:16,560
Alas, only Taliesin.

722
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,440
Hereditary titles are not known among the Cymry,

723
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:20,373
savage as we are.

724
00:58:21,210 --> 00:58:22,590
Never say it!

725
00:58:22,590 --> 00:58:26,103
Your people are as noble as any I have encountered.

726
00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,820
King Avallach. Lady of the Lake.

727
00:58:37,410 --> 00:58:39,110
I've never met another like him.

728
00:58:40,710 --> 00:58:42,240
He's proud enough.

729
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:47,130
When he sings, I forget the pain of our loss.

730
00:58:47,130 --> 00:58:50,130
Even my old wound grieves me less.

731
00:58:50,130 --> 00:58:51,880
His song brings no comfort to me.

732
00:58:53,250 --> 00:58:54,083
Truly?

733
00:58:56,160 --> 00:59:00,400
I plan to gift them the lands north of the Tor

734
00:59:01,980 --> 00:59:03,130
if they will have them.

735
00:59:04,410 --> 00:59:05,860
You would settle them here?

736
00:59:06,810 --> 00:59:10,773
Their need is dire, and it's not a tenth of my holdings.

737
00:59:12,180 --> 00:59:13,053
You object?

738
00:59:16,050 --> 00:59:18,383
Why should I care where the singer lays his head?

739
00:59:27,586 --> 00:59:32,586
(people murmuring)
(birds chirping)

740
00:59:40,020 --> 00:59:40,853
Charis!

741
00:59:46,290 --> 00:59:47,123
Wait!

742
00:59:52,050 --> 00:59:53,600
I thought to find you barefoot.

743
00:59:55,710 --> 00:59:58,173
Your boots, you left them at the lake.

744
00:59:59,610 --> 01:00:01,980
A true prince would have returned them.

745
01:00:01,980 --> 01:00:03,480
As I've said, I'm no prince.

746
01:00:04,740 --> 01:00:09,123
But I'll redeem myself, if you will allow me.

747
01:00:14,103 --> 01:00:16,353
They are yours, are they not?

748
01:00:18,885 --> 01:00:19,802
They are.

749
01:00:21,685 --> 01:00:24,268
(gentle music)

750
01:00:32,956 --> 01:00:36,373
(gentle music continues)

751
01:00:41,723 --> 01:00:43,893
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

752
01:00:48,064 --> 01:00:51,933
I thought that was all life held for me after our loss.

753
01:00:51,933 --> 01:00:55,350
(gentle music continues)

754
01:01:04,435 --> 01:01:07,852
(gentle music continues)

755
01:01:14,426 --> 01:01:17,843
(gentle music continues)

756
01:01:25,210 --> 01:01:28,110
2,000 of us arrived on these shores after the cataclysm.

757
01:01:29,430 --> 01:01:30,723
Only 1,000 remain.

758
01:01:32,370 --> 01:01:33,370
And yet, you live.

759
01:01:34,260 --> 01:01:35,093
And while there is life in you,

760
01:01:35,093 --> 01:01:36,540
there is hope for your people.

761
01:01:38,010 --> 01:01:38,843
You are young-

762
01:01:39,900 --> 01:01:41,253
To your eyes, perhaps.

763
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:44,670
My people carry our years more lightly than others.

764
01:01:46,140 --> 01:01:48,190
This place need not be a grave, Charis.

765
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:52,470
I like to believe something great and tragic

766
01:01:52,470 --> 01:01:53,763
occurred in this place.

767
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:56,403
Sometime long ago.

768
01:01:58,710 --> 01:02:01,160
Do not tell me otherwise, bard. Even if you know.

769
01:02:03,993 --> 01:02:07,447
All the world is made up of events both great and tragic.

770
01:02:08,820 --> 01:02:11,313
Some are observed and remembered, others-

771
01:02:15,090 --> 01:02:16,090
There was a woman.

772
01:02:19,050 --> 01:02:20,500
She came from across the sea.

773
01:02:23,010 --> 01:02:24,840
Her life was hard, for the land was harsh.

774
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,773
And she could not help remembering all she had left behind.

775
01:02:28,890 --> 01:02:30,540
She longed to return to her home.

776
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:36,810
What became of her?

777
01:02:38,340 --> 01:02:39,363
She grew lonely.

778
01:02:42,330 --> 01:02:43,163
And died.

779
01:02:44,070 --> 01:02:46,653
(somber music)

780
01:02:53,340 --> 01:02:55,187
Was there no man to love her?

781
01:02:59,370 --> 01:03:01,590
Once there was a man whose song captured her heart

782
01:03:01,590 --> 01:03:04,390
as easily as a fowler catching a bird in a silken snare.

783
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:10,148
But they were from different worlds, and it could not be.

784
01:03:10,148 --> 01:03:13,565
(somber music continues)

785
01:03:21,767 --> 01:03:22,934
Why is this?

786
01:03:28,490 --> 01:03:31,573
(tense somber music)

787
01:03:35,130 --> 01:03:37,557
Neither pain nor pleasure, evermore.

788
01:03:40,105 --> 01:03:43,438
(dramatic somber music)

789
01:03:50,357 --> 01:03:52,723
Charis! Charis!

790
01:03:52,723 --> 01:03:53,973
Haw!

791
01:03:55,043 --> 01:03:58,547
(dramatic somber music continues)

792
01:03:58,547 --> 01:04:01,380
(Morgian sobbing)

793
01:04:05,636 --> 01:04:09,803
(dramatic somber music continues)

794
01:04:14,841 --> 01:04:17,674
(Morgian sobbing)

795
01:04:20,746 --> 01:04:23,829
(dark ominous music)

796
01:04:29,900 --> 01:04:33,233
(dramatic solemn music)

797
01:04:42,408 --> 01:04:44,991
(uneasy music)

798
01:04:49,928 --> 01:04:52,928
(dark uneasy music)

799
01:05:02,287 --> 01:05:06,120
(dark uneasy music continues)

800
01:05:15,385 --> 01:05:19,218
(dark uneasy music continues)

801
01:05:26,199 --> 01:05:28,866
(air swooshing)

802
01:05:31,678 --> 01:05:34,585
Look upon me then shinning brow.

803
01:05:34,585 --> 01:05:37,668
(Taliesin screaming)

804
01:05:45,011 --> 01:05:47,216
(horse neighing)

805
01:05:47,216 --> 01:05:48,131
(crow cawing)

806
01:05:48,131 --> 01:05:50,881
(horse grunting)

807
01:05:59,085 --> 01:06:01,835
(horse neighing)

808
01:06:07,603 --> 01:06:10,353
(knife slashing)

809
01:06:11,450 --> 01:06:13,920
All this is an illusion,

810
01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:16,132
an echo of a voice that has died.

811
01:06:16,132 --> 01:06:19,049
(people screaming)

812
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:22,159
And soon that echo will cease.

813
01:06:22,159 --> 01:06:24,688
Death before slavery!

814
01:06:24,688 --> 01:06:26,850
(tense music)

815
01:06:26,850 --> 01:06:28,740
Men are weak, Taliesin,

816
01:06:28,740 --> 01:06:31,350
unwilling to pay the price for better world.

817
01:06:31,350 --> 01:06:34,320
There is a new power at work in the world. I've seen it.

818
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,230
I've seen a lamb shining with goodness.

819
01:06:37,230 --> 01:06:38,760
It's the kingdom of summer.

820
01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:40,980
Where you came from no man knows.

821
01:06:40,980 --> 01:06:43,950
Where you are going no man can say.

822
01:06:43,950 --> 01:06:45,120
I'll not be separated from you.

823
01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:50,120
I will not give my daughter to a barbarian.

824
01:06:50,526 --> 01:06:53,443
(swords swooshing)

825
01:06:54,300 --> 01:06:55,885
Marry me, Charis.

826
01:06:55,885 --> 01:06:58,635
(dramatic music)

827
01:07:03,050 --> 01:07:06,133
(dark pensive music)

828
01:07:15,447 --> 01:07:19,364
(dark pensive music continues)

829
01:07:28,337 --> 01:07:32,254
(dark pensive music continues)

830
01:07:41,357 --> 01:07:45,274
(dark pensive music continues)

831
01:07:54,437 --> 01:07:58,354
(dark pensive music continues)

832
01:08:07,413 --> 01:08:11,330
(dark pensive music continues)

833
01:08:13,261 --> 01:08:16,428
(dark dramatic music)

834
01:08:25,429 --> 01:08:29,429
(dark dramatic music continues)
